Do they get a fever from sunburn? He doesn't seem to be acting different. He just changed color.

OK here's an update. Today his normal color seems to be back; the redness has toned down. He wanted to go outside against but I didn't want him getting sun again today. However, I just saw where he went; he's napping on the table in the sunroom right underneath the skylight. Henry is the one stretched out in the middle. Now I don't know if I should pick him up and put him somewhere shady.

Happy to hear the redness went away. He sure is a sunlover. If the sun is coming through a window it can do no harm/no sunburn

The sun is coming thru a skylight, which is tinted, but you can see how much light gets thru. I just wish he didn't love it so much.

That's definitly possible. My boy Toa has tine lines after being in the sun too/he gets a tan. Ross never gets a tan.

My poor baby's skin on his back is peeling 
I'm sorry to tell him that he can't go outside anymore but it's too hot outside if you're a human. It's already so hot you go outside for a few minutes and start sweating.

My little man also loves the sun I am planning on getting Him outside this summer. What is a safe and effective sunblock for our babies. He will be in a carrier with a light weight shirt on I am hoping to find UV protector material to make him a little top. But I am still worried it will not be enough. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated or photos please.
